Round 1 was a success overall. We had issues with the wind blowing all night and throughout racing, but it was still a good start to the season 💨
🏁 NORA Day 1
Good results for Ade, Dean, and Steve Smith, all testing the King tyres and helping with feedback for development.
👀 Watch this space—I think within 12 months these tyres could be right at the top of the elite field.

🌧️ Sunday – British Round 1
Sunday proved difficult with the weather conditions.
Steve sat the day out and helped the team from the pits 🙌
Ade had a strong practice and Q1, but in Race 1 twisted his knee after saving a big one. He tried to continue but had to retire and rest for the day 💥
Dean had bad luck in Q1 with a front wheel bearing issue, sending him off track into the off-road.
Race 1 saw him blown off the tabletop, somehow saving a spectacular crash, but twisting his pelvis and retiring.
Races 2 and 3 showed good pace and lap times, but injuries held back the results.

🇧🇪 Belgium Round 2 – Chimay
With April showers and glorious sunshine, the conditions went from amazing to the worst 🌦️
Practice and Q1 showed both riders were up to pace 👊
Ade Deeley smashed all 3 races in the Over 45s, showing his experience in the off-road and pushing his tarmac speed to new limits.
In the final race he was banging bars with some very experienced Belgian vet riders, showing all his off-season training is paying off 💪
👉 Finished 11th overall
Dean was still fighting race gremlins:
• Race 1 – puncture
• Race 2 – front brake issue
Race 3 he was back on form with a solid, determined ride. Despite everything from the earlier races, he dug deep, got his head down and pushed hard throughout—putting in consistent lap times and keeping it clean to bring the Yamaha home in 9th position. A strong finish to the weekend and a proper comeback ride 👊
👉 Finished 13th overall
